As a painter, our best work is done when we are inspired. But how do we get that inspiration? Here are some of the ways I gain my inspiration. Hope this guide helps you to get over the "creative block "hump" or be even more inspired!
1. Observe the world. I love the water and also big cities. So I can get inspiration by visiting a new vacation spot or city. Where are some of your favorite places to be? Using photos you've taken or other's have given you permission to paint from, create your own happy place..chances are it's someone else's too.
2. Hobbies. What do you like to do? Sailing, Golfing, Animals etc can be great inspiration.
3.What are others creating and how can you make their style fit for you? Go to museums, galleries and visit okay art.
4. Movies and Books. What are your favorites and if you where asked to design for a set or cover what would you paint?
5. Meditate or Think On It. This may sound corny but sometimes just sitting and thinking about your creative dreamcan bring wonderful new ideas.
6. Just Do It. Sometimes the simple act of putting a brush to paper can inspire you.
Hope you have some wonderful inspiration gee your way soon.
Warm Regards,
Pam
